Program Reviews

Thanks to TEFLPros, I got my dream job in Korea!! Not only did they help connect me with schools and give me tips and support, the course prepared me and I am actually using what I learned in the classroom. I started with some other teachers who did other courses and they have no idea what they are doing! I feel totally prepared and I’m even helping them plan some of their lessons. I have used a lot of my lesson plans from the course in my actual classes. One of the things about this course that’s great is they teach you how to adapt the basic framework of a lesson plan to any situation. TEFLPros job assistance is probably a little different from other courses. They provide you resources and support but don’t just dump you into a job. It made me feel like the choice was mine instead of being stuck in some random job. Get certified with TEFLPros! :)

I like the clarity, examples and modeling of the lessons in the videos. I received prompt, helpful answers when I had questions about the program and follow up support. Job hunt resources are helpful. When I had an issue with an individual’s Facebook group behavior it was immediately responded to and resolved. The coursework gave me ideas for lesson plans and curriculum delivery options that I could immediately apply in my classes. This course has given me a good foundation for my ESL teaching career overseas. The discussion of education philosophies and the essay assignment helped me to prepare for a job interview because I was able to speak knowledgeably on preferred instruction delivery styles and my own reasons for teaching ESL as a second career.

I had teaching experience prior to taking the course and thought I knew quite a lot until i signed up and begun the course. Being a native English speaker it comes naturally however, teaching it is a whole different ball game. TEFLPros course is by no means easy however, I found it invaluable in my work and learned an abundance of things I thought I already knew. The best thing is that you are not pushed and can do it at your own pace which for a travelling teacher is so important. I Was in the process of changing jobs and travelling at the time and I was allowecd to do the course at my own pace. If this wasn`t the case then there was no way I could have done it.
Thank you Whitney and Jo for providing such a professional course. i have learnt many invaluable things that will help me become a better teacher.

I was really happy with the TEFLPros course. I liked their transparency and the fact that they never made me feel like "a sale". I researched a million courses before settling on this one and I took it at the same time as a friend (who I noticed also wrote a review here haha) and we were both really happy with everything. I liked how they never hunted me like other courses did. They answered all my questions and trusted me to make a decision rather than calling me every other day. On the course, it felt like I had real teachers. Jos and Whit were consistent in all the lessons and after submitting my lesson plans (yes you have to write lesson plans) I got fantastic feedback and actually used one of the lesson plans to demo for the awesome job I just got. Thanks TEFLPros for putting something out there that's good quality and REAL. To anyone reading, you won't be disappointed with this course. Have a good one!

I was really happy with everything about TEFLPros. I looked through a million courses before settling on this one. I was attracted to the focus on providing something of good quality. It seemed like all the other courses were just marketing machines trying to up-sell me at every chance they had. I emailed TEFLPros when I was researching and they answered right away and didn't hunt me with follow-ups. They kept it real.

On the course, I learned a lot of stuff about teaching that I had no idea about. I feel pretty comfortable to lesson plan now and manage a classroom. It felt like an in-person course with the two instructors rather than just an automated robotic course. Actually, in many ways, it was probably better than an in-person course because I had so many classroom observations, around 20 hours I think. Anyway, I was really happy with these guys and I totally recommend them.

I learned so much on this course, way more than I was expecting! I really recommend TEFLPros for anyone who wants to teach English abroad. They prepared me in so many ways. Now I know how to lesson plan, manage a classroom, major grammar points and lots more. There were so many options for me to choose from and TEFLPros made a good case for being transparent and real about everything. The course was easy to follow and I didn't have any issues before, during or after. My favorite part was that there was SO much video. I was never bored and all the video helped me to really understand the lessons better. It felt like I was in a classroom. They helped me get my resume formatted and connected me with lots of great jobs. I felt supported the whole time but most importantly, I feel ready to teach! I can't wait :)

I’m a traveler so making the decision to teach English abroad wasn’t hard for me. But choosing the right course took a lot of research. In the end I went for TEFLPros because they felt really transparent in a super scammy industry. Wow! The course was above and beyond my expectations. It was super engaging and I never felt bored because there’s lots of video. They taught me how to lesson plan and manage a classroom. I didn’t know any of this stuff before I took the course. Being a good teacher is more difficult than I expected! But this course really gave me the tools to do a good job. I am open to teaching anywhere in the world and their job support has been helpful for someone so indecisive like me haha. They helped me get my resume set up and the best part is that after completing the course I have lots of my own lesson plans that I can show to schools (writing these and getting feedback on them is part of the course). Overall great experience and I’m so excited for the next step!

Thanks, TEFLPros for helping me get started on my TEFL journey. The course has a lot of videos so it's really engaging. I was never bored. After taking the course I feel really comfortable about lesson planning because they walk you through it step by step.

First, you do some pre-unit warm up, then you read about whatever the particular topic is for that lesson. There's a corresponding video for that instructional material. Then, if it's a unit about lesson planning, you actually WATCH them write out a lesson plan step-by-step. Then you get to watch that lesson plan in action in a real classroom with real students. There are 6 real teachers in the class with nearly 18 hours of real class observation so I didn't have to try to find classes to go sit and watch. This was super convenient. I could go on and on. Anyway, do your cert with TEFLPros!

From start to finish, this was by far the best TEFL course out there. I actually took one in the past from Groupon and I was totally unprepared to teach and most schools wouldn't accept it. TEFLPros course was like night and day compared to that rag I bought for $19 on Groupon. They are straightforward, supportive and most of all, the course content will ACTUALLY PREPARE YOU TO TEACH. The modules are well planned and clear to follow. Each module requires a multiple choice quiz to pass and some related activity (lesson plans, worksheets etc.) So it's not all ABCDABCDABCD. I actually have a portfolio of my own lesson plans now that I can submit to employers. I do online teaching but I'll be moving to Thailand this fall thanks to all the help and prep from TEFLPros. Thanks Abby especially for always responding to me fast. Do this course. You won't regret it.

This was exactly what I was looking for! :) I plan to teach online to make some extra cash. Most companies require a TEFL certification now, at least all the ones I was looking at. A lot of people suggested that I just get a cheap thing on Groupon or something but I actually want to learn how to teach properly and those courses are absolute junk, I can't even believe they qualify! The thing that was great about TEFLPros is that they are no BS (excuse my language). They respond almost instantly to all my questions and gave me straightforward answers when I was choosing a course. Trying to choose a course was so overwhelming but TEFLPros made things EASY. I enjoyed the course; it was engaging and really practical. I may not use everything I learned in my online teaching but that's ok, a little extra knowledge won't hurt! Thanks TEFLPros for making this such a great experience!
